This has been out down to the proliferation of design research practices and sometimes the removal of key research steps removed from processes.

Kelly acknowledges the traditional owners of the land (I will post the longer acknowledgement when I post this)
Kelly Ann wants us to think about our power as researchers, who ever holds the pen tells the story.
For marginalised and underrepresented communities it's important they are able to tell their own narratives.

Sean received an email while at lunch with his team from Seattle asking for 300 remotely moderated 90 minute sessions.
The email asked him to take a breadth.
U1 is 6 people — how could U1 manage this scale?

Sean said 'yep we're interested, but it'll be tough to scale up the project with the size of the business."
Over the next few weeks the client in Seattle wanted to work with U1 and the project began!

Becky will takes us back to a time when conferences looked like this.
Thousands of customers flocked to Atlassians customer conference.
Unfortunately for researchers customers are bouncing around the conference and the environment isn't ideal for research.

Unfortunately for researchers customers are bouncing around the conference and the environment isn't ideal for research.
To get around this Becky used Workshop Walls, conference attendees would walk by, share their opinion and a researcher would swoop in a have a quick conversation with customers.
Over the years it's iterated into multiple spaces.

Ben is a Director at Symplicit in Brisbane and acknowledges the traditional custodians.
Ben wants to look back at our roots and see how we got here as design researchers.
A client asked "Why do you do it this way?"
Maybe you've moved from post it notes to full transcripts.
When you do that it's still the same process.

Paul wants us to think about how remote participation allows us to approach design research in a new way.
Paul will talk about 7 conventions for design research that are worth challenging.
Paul wants us to think about our practices and the way it allows us to reinvent our work to get better outcomes.
